Hi, I need to make a cabinet on my bathroom around the wash basin and will be covering the stretch to the floor. I cannot find any suitable material. Since our bathrooms may not have a complete dry area like in the west, I am not sure what material can be used. An obvious economical would be Sintex, but is there any other better materials available? Please let me know your suggestions for this.

Even I had the similar requirement but as you said, could not find anything suitable to build it. I had found an option of Parryware 's built in wash basin with a drawyer below, but it was too expensive , I felt and dropped that. Probably you can check that.

Great Question jackalbda! Even i am interested in the answer. I hope someone knowledgeable answers this one.

I have constructed my cabinet for the bathroom using marine plywood. I have plastic legs supporting the cabinets. The plastic legs are adjustable and gives a space of 6 inches between the cabinet and the floor. I have been using this since the last year and half without any issues. I do have a shower cabinet that is supposed to be the wet area, however, unlike in the west, we do wash the entire bath room floor periodically. So there is no strict wet and dry area as such. I have the exhaust fan and light switch combined like in the west, so this sucks out moisture every time we take a shower, hence the cabinets might not degraded.

Thanks for the info. Could you give me the details of the carpenter or shop?

knair, I live in mysore, the carpenter and the shop are in mysore. I am not sure if that would help.

Fine, I will manage it here. Thanks.
